    Request - Pics of E30 Verts w/ Plastic Bumper Swap

    Hey guys,

    Looking for pics of your E30 Verts that have had their Diving Boards swapped for late-model plastic bumpers. Especially interested to see what the rear of the car looks like, and side-profile shots.

    Thanks!

    wouldn't they look the same as the vert that came originally with plastics?

      Nope. Rear lower valance is not the same. It is basically non-existent on the early model cars.

        Exactly what I was looking for! Thanks!

        Any idea if an aftermarket rear skirt, like a Racing Dynamics or AC Schnitzer, will fit on a car w/ the early rear valence?

          i am pretty sure they should as they actually mount to the bumper cover ( i think)

            That's what I was thinking --- the aftermarket skirt would, in effect, "hang" from the plastic bumper cover itself.

                    The blue one with the tan top up above? It was. It has moved on.
